Breaking Waves

the water was never too still
not a passive wave without a hill
but waves always found a way to kill
was the trip really worth the thrill
and sirens come out when all is wrong
with voice too pretty to mute their songs
preach love but feeling hate
we'd stay up late just to grab a taste
(chorus x2)
so send your blessings off to sea
let the waves take all of me
respect the tidings sent my way
I'll grab the distance and my breaking waves
but the flags are risen only half mast
in a cheap attempt to renew the past
cloth tattered up beyond repair
stitches never really hide despair
so oh, oh no, stay on track with me
so oh, good Lord, tell me you'll never leave
or you could
(chorus x2)
send your blessings off to sea
let the waves take all of me
respect the tidings sent my way
I'll grab the distance and my breaking waves
tell the captain the sea burns around me
tell the captain to go and leave me be
I stuck with this ship when all it did was float
I'll stick with this ship until it bloody blows
tell the captain the sea burns around me
tell the captain to go and leave me be
I stuck with this ship when all it did was float
I'll stick with this shit, until it fucking blows
so tell me you'll never leave
just tell me you'll never leave
tell me you'll never leave, no
just tell me you'll never leave

Well Wishes

Wishing around an empty well
Will they come true only time will tell
(But I'm) Throwing pennies one at a time
Hoping one will Change my life
Sipping out my old canteen
I know a boy can dream
But who are you?
Who are you?
I was made of steel and dust
And I found my purpose no I'm not lost
(And I see you) Throwing pennies one at a time
Hoping one will change my mind
Sipping out your old canteen
I Hope you boys can dream!
But who are you?
Who are you?
Oh who are you?!
Who are you?!
Maybe I was a little gone
Maybe I, maybe I, was a little off
Maybe I was Lost
But I will never know the truth that must unfold
But who are you?
Throwing pennies one at a time
hoping one will change my life
Sipping out your old canteen
I hope you boys can Dream!
But who are you?
Who are you?
Oh who are you?!
Who are you?!
Oh who are...

What is Right

I was sitting down
Thinking aloud
Wondering what to write down
Oh what is right now?
Three mischievous kids
Wonderin' if their words are sin
Am I right now?
Oh what is right now?
Oh dear tell me that I'm wrong
And that the devil is stuck within my song
And oh dear please don't make me right
Too many years without the light, too many years
So bless on to me
My broken sunset
Bless on to me
My fallen stars
Bless on to me
Your vicious vices
Bless on to me
And we shall Rise
Oh we Shall (x2)
Oh we Shall Rise
Oh we Shall (x2)
Oh we Shall Rise
